Leggings should have stayed in the 80's

Ok, quick poll. Women who wear tights/leggings as pants look like:

a) 8 year olds on their way to dance class
b) 8 year olds who can't afford real pants
c) A and B
d) All of the above


I kid. To the countless scores of women out there who are recently in love with wearing tights and leggings, i mean no offense. I just want to learn a tad more about this fashion phenomenon.

Explanations why women choose to look like out of work aerobic instructors:

1. comfortable. ok, it's like wearing your PJ's in public. super. you're wearing your PJ's in public, however.

2. looks good? i suppose if you're stick thin it makes you look ever more svelte but if you so happen as to have any bit of, how shall we say...padding, then it doesn't exactly flatter you.

I know some guys feel the same way I do. I also know other guys like it but not because the woman looks put together or "stylish." Just that it's nice to be able to see her wearing undergarments.

So will tights/leggings stick around? Not sure. It was a smooth evolution of fashion so it might be here to stay for awhile. We had girls wearing jeans, then tight jeans, then extremely tight jeans, and then extremely tight jeans tucked into boots. Of course the next step will be women just painting on their clothes. You heard it here first.


ed note: I love women and all their fashion choices. If a woman feels confident with what she's wearing (or not wearing), go for it. I just felt like sharing.
